KreOS 3.01 Skylark - Old traditions newly...
CrazedProgrammer 01 Apr 2015
Here is my review for the current version.
I'm sorry if I'm being harsh, but an OS, even in an alpha state, should have some functionality.
Pros:
- Good installer
- Good interface
- Cool file viewer concept (like Total Commander)
- No errors
- Options (but only change background color)
Cons:
- 1/5 of it is implemented, these things aren't implemented at all:
First icon on the desktop
First, third and fourth icon in the settings menu
Add application in the application settings menu (shows a non-functional interface)
Delete and list application in the application settings menu
All actions in the file viewer except exit
- No multitasking at all (even multishell would be better)
- No functionality at all
- Can't add applications
- Shell doesn't clear the screen
- Cursor keeps blinking after closing shell or file viewer
- Time doesn't update (add a timer?)
- File viewer doesn't show difference between files and folders
- Can't run scripts from the file viewer
- NDF-OS clone with multiple screens (I'm getting so tired of these NDF-OS clones)
Why did you choose to release this OS in such an unfinished state?
Anyways, I hope it gets better with updates.

Thank you for your feedback. Let me answer to every contra point. I numbered your points for better overview.
- Add application should normally work. Could you please explain what's not working? Notice that added applications will be shown after the next reboot.
- Coming in today's update.
- The file viewer is just temporary. It is my unfinished CCC. Later this week there will be an own file manager for the operating system.
- Coming in a later update.
- What would be functionality for you? The sense of a ComputerCraft OS is basically to launch applications and that's what KreOS 3.0 can do.
- Fixed in today's update.
- Fixed in today's update.
- Fixed in today's update.
- I actually don't think so because it is quite different.
